Orange Clockwork Rigid

orange33

I have recently bought an original Orange Clockwork Rigid Frame. It is 21 speed with Shimano Deore LX rapid fire gears. Does anyone have the original specifications for these bikes? My bike is not the two tone orange and white colour. It is a solid orange colour frame.

According to Orange they stopped making the Clockwork in 1998. If anyone can help with the spec or is able to tell me what year my bike possible is i would be grateful.

I have been trying to upload pictures but not been successful so far. I am clicking on the Img tab above the message body box, but unsure what to do from there. Any advice welcome.

Firstly, post/upload your pics on a photo sharing site such as:

http://www.flickr.com/

or

http://photobucket.com/

There are others but they're the two I remember.

Then post links to them on here in your forum posts. That's how people show their pics in the Bike Radar forum.

How about contacting Orange directly? they built your bike and will know more about it than most eh.

Looks pretty original to me. 8)

Looking at the spec I'd say its a 1994 model (no v-brakes,21 speed, compact drive). :shock:

Hope this helps.
